Watched Ferris Bueller a couple night ago. Ya know what?

It was much better and far funnier than I had anticipated. By golly that young Matthew Broderick actually could act, and not just look cute. I knew that Ben Stein had made an acting career off lecturing in economics to highschool dullards in this movie, and he was appropriately droll -- but even funnier was Jeffrey Jones as the investigating principal, a comic role played to hilarious perfection.

The bit parts were just as grand, especially the garage attendant. Another surprise: Charlie Sheen as a dead-on Fonzie type, on stage for only two or three minutes, but a commanding presence.

The transfer on this anamorphic Paramount DVD was superb, nearly HD in quality.
